There is no solution to this expression (I would call it an equation, but technically it's not equal). Since the left side has absolute value bars, this means that any expression (here, '2x') put inside those bars becomes positive whether it was positive or negative to begin with. The left side of the expression is always positive no matter what 2x equals, so ' I 2x I ' cannot be -5.

it can't be solved.
The reason is module of a number is always positive, so in this case there's no solution
Basic way to do it (suppose the problem was |2x|=5):
|x|=5/2. Then the solution is tha number which module is 5/2. Those numbers are 5/2 and -5/2

no solution.
the absolute value of an expression always evaluates to a number greater than or equal to zero.
